The Dragon Girl would never like the Lord.

How could a mother, a wife who lost her husband at a young age, possibly bear this?

Several times she almost went to find Ron on her own initiative, but she was pulled back by her last shred of reason.

However, the emotions that have been building up over this period are almost uncontrollable, and when they finally erupt, it will be an extremely beautiful sight...

"Oville, Lucia, I'll have to keep working hard these next few days to continue cultivating the wheat fields."

In fact, the construction of the territory was basically completed three days ago. Ron let them rest for a day, and the next day they began to continue to expand in advance for next year.

In the past two days, they have reclaimed a full thousand acres of wheat fields at an astonishing rate of five hundred acres per day.

This way, the following spring, planting can begin immediately without waiting.

Ron's plan is to turn the vast swamp into a granary. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Let O'Ville and Lucia develop it for six or seven days, then rest for a day. Let's develop ten thousand acres of wheat fields first.

However, they now cultivate 500 acres a day with ease and can finish by evening.

Five hundred acres a day is enough; Ron lets them rest for the rest of the time.

After all, dragons are not machines; they need proper rest and can't work themselves to the bone all day long.

If they get exhausted, the losses will be enormous.

"Don't worry, my lord, we will complete the mission well."

O'Ville remained as composed as ever, giving the man a serious and earnest assurance.

Actually, she was quite happy and felt a great sense of accomplishment seeing the construction within the territory, all of which was her achievement.

Therefore, I am not opposed to pioneering work.

Moreover, as one becomes more adept at using the ability, cultivating 500 acres of wheat fields in a day is not difficult.

"As long as there's good food, Lucia will try her best~"

Lucia really wanted to say that she would keep doing it as long as the lord helped her rub her tail.

Because she really enjoyed that feeling; it made her happier than eating barbecue.

Of course, this is likely because she hasn't eaten more delicious meat. If she had, she probably wouldn't think this way.

Ron had also considered letting Lucia try different kinds of meat during this time, not just limited to roasted lamb and roasted venison, as she was probably getting a little tired of them.

Ron treats his subordinates well for their meritorious service, always finding ways to make them happier and more joyful.

As Ron watched the dragon girl gradually disappear into the distance under the morning light, the corners of his mouth slowly turned up.

I felt quite emotional.

I remember when I first met them, they were very wary of me and looked at me with some hostility. Now they have become my most capable subordinates.

"You seem to be thinking something damn bad."

Fria frowned when she saw Ron staring at her companion.

"What, you're not having any strange thoughts about me? Are you jealous?"

Ron licked his lips, leaned closer, and teased him with a smug look on his face.

"I think you want to get punched."

Fria's eyes narrowed, and she looked at the man in front of her with an indifferent expression.

How could this shameless human dare to think of such a thing?

How could I possibly have such thoughts?

“You’ve been thoroughly humiliated by me lately, how dare you say such things?”

After acquiring three illustrations last time, Ron's strength has greatly improved, and he has been in the lead in the sparring sessions over the past two weeks.

However, in the past few days, he has felt that he is starting to lose control of Fria.

Ron was also helpless about this. Everyone else was growing every day, so why was this Fire Dragon Girl improving so fast?

"Today it will be the other way around."

What Ron didn't know was that after each sparring session, Fria would practice for several more hours.

Because she wanted to experience the feeling of pinning her opponent to the ground again, she didn't want to be suppressed and wanted to be the one in control during the sparring match.

In addition, she recovered a lot of her depleted qi and blood, which is why she was able to make such a great improvement.

"Okay, then I can lie on the ground and enjoy it."

"Indeed, you can enjoy the feeling of my fist coming down."

"That's not bad."

Ron smiled, then spoke seriously:

"Today you will lead them on the hunt. Remember, safety comes first. No matter what happens, ensuring safety is the most important thing."

During this period, he personally led the hunting teams.

There's no other reason than simply enjoying the thrill of the hunt. After all, with such a powerful cheat code as Shemir by your side, how could anyone not love hunting?

However, he had other matters to attend to today. A few days ago, he sent people south along the edge of the swamp, and they discovered an outlet to the sea 50 kilometers away.

According to reports from subordinates, it was a confluence of a river and the sea, and its area was more than ten times larger than the lake in the territory.

For the sake of the territory's future development, Ron decided to personally lead a team to take a look.

He wanted to build a port by the sea next year, which would make fishing, transporting supplies, and traveling to other towns for battle much easier...

Chapter 117 Ron Departs! Major Crisis! Wilson Gray Launches a Major Invasion!

In the morning light, in the swamp territory, the man's gentle expression caused Philia to momentarily lose her composure.

It was as if those words of concern were spoken to her.

But I immediately dismissed the idea.

Because Fria realized that this man always entrusted her with dangerous tasks.

How could I possibly be worried about her safety?

"understood!"

Thinking about this, Feliya felt inexplicably anxious and turned to leave.

How could this shameless human possibly care about himself?

He probably cares about Shemir and his soldiers...

"Fria, you're the captain. The safety of Shemir and the others is in your hands."

Watching the dragon girl's departing figure, Ron, worried that something might have gone wrong, gave her one last piece of advice:

"I hope you can take on the responsibility of being the captain and bring everyone back safely."

His reason for saying this was simple: he hoped that in the event of a crisis, Fria could stay behind so that everyone else could go first.

Of course, this doesn't mean we don't cherish Philia.

It was precisely because they trusted her and cared about her that they did this; after all, her near-death experience could awaken a stronger bloodline, making her suitable for sacrificing herself as a rearguard...

"I see!"

What was once just suspicion now became absolute certainty about the man's intentions. Fria felt a sharp pain in her heart. She gritted her teeth and softly uttered a few words.

He seemed completely unconcerned about the matter, but his expression turned somewhat forlorn.

Just like the man's previous words of liking, the mutual appreciation during their moonlit duels, all that goodwill has vanished in the past.

As expected, I still really hate humans!!!

Philia's expression turned arrogant again, all traces of tenderness that had arisen during this time vanished, leaving only coldness.

"I have only one task for you: if you encounter danger, bring the hunting party back to the territory intact."

Ron was still a little worried even after giving Fria his instructions, since these people were all people he had poured his heart and soul into and were promising talents for future swift archers.

If they were to sacrifice themselves now, it would be a tremendous loss.

"Yes, my lord. I will complete the mission."

Shemier felt that this matter was not difficult for her, after all, her sense of smell could detect a lot of information, and with the addition of Feliya, she could completely avoid danger in advance.

"Muses, you stay here and come with me on another mission today."

Although the knight had already gone to the outskirts of the swamp a few days ago, where it connects to the sea, Ron was still a little worried.

Although Muses' sense of smell is not as good as her mother's, she can still detect some dangers in advance.

"Yes, my lord~"

Upon hearing this, Muses nodded respectfully, though he was still slightly nervous inside.

During this period, she had been accompanying her mother on missions.

I've never faced it alone before.

"Museus, your mother believes in you. You have a great sense of danger because you are my best child."

To ease her daughter's confusion, Shemier gently patted her head, offering the warmest encouragement.
